‘Triple C’ said, “I am going for Jorge, man. If he’s not working his wrestling, different transitions to get off from bottom. Jorge is gonna be in for a rude night. Colby Covington, I believe he’s an all-American wrestler.”
“So he knows how to ride people, which is, you know, he couldn’t do that to Kamaru Usman. He is an awesome wrestler. But it’s just the simple fact that he is fighting Jorge Masvidal.”
“I think he’s gonna shoot him for double right away. For Masvidal, he’s gonna have to go for the broke man. I think you take those same chances with those flying knees a lot of that blitz stuff. Because when Colby stays on that leg, he is like a dog on that bone.”
